IMPROVEMENT IN CHILDREN'S CARRIAG-ES.

The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.

To allwhom "it may concern Be it knowuthat I, J 6951: A. H. ELLIS, of Springfield, Windsor county, Vermont, have invented a new and improved Ohildrens Carriage; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to'make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which?- Figure 1 represents a side view of my improved childrens carriage.

Figure 2 is an inverted plan view of the same.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding This invention relates to a novel manner of arranging the springs on childrens carriages, for the purpose of making them answer at once as reach andas axlesupports, so that the sills or reach heretofore employed can bedone away with.

The invention consists in connecting the two axles of the carn'age by means of two springs, and in attaching them to the saidsprings, and in securing the said connecting-springs to the body of the carriage by means of intervening springs, as hereinafter more fully set forth.

A, in the drawing, represents the front axle, and B, the rear axle of a childrens carriage. These two axles are fastened to and connected by 'is' in motion.

Having thus described my invention,

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

The arrangement of the childs carriage upon the four independent springs E, supported upon the two parallel springs O, which form the reach and sole conneat-ion between the front and rear axles, as herein described, for the purpose specified.
